Battle Not With Monsters (A Neen Ford Thriller #1)

Author: Overton Scott

Genre: Adult Thriller

Release Date: March 8, 2014

Description:

Victim?

Neen Ford is a loner,
drifting from town to town, working as a security guard and teaching
martial arts. One hot night in Dallas, she witnesses the brutal murder
of a Ukranian prostitute and becomes the killer’s next target. Neen’s
never backed down from a fight, but she’s never tangled with a human
trafficking ring before. Until now.

Hero?

Naïve young
women are being trafficked into the United States by Russian criminals.
Someone needs to help them. The police are trying, but they’re not
moving fast enough for Neen, who is now being stalked by a man who
enjoys inflicting pain.

Vigilante?

How far will Neen go to
save herself? How far, to save three young women from a life of fear
and despair? And what price will she pay for battling the monster?
There’s a thin line between hero and vigilante – will she cross it?

I thought I’d have a little fun with a top ten list. Neen Ford, the
heroine of my new thriller, Battle Not With Monsters, is a tough cookie.
She can land a spinning heel kick or an elbow slash. She’s also handy
with a gun. Most guys would be intimidated, but here are ten ways to
impress Neen.

1. Never start a sentence with, “I don’t think women should…” 2. Take her shopping at Whole Foods. She loves that place. 3. Once a month, buy her a small carton of Blue Bell chocolate ice cream. 4. Sit through a marathon of Bruce Lee movies one weekend. 5. Admire her abs. 6. Keep an ice pack handy for swelling. Neen picks up a lot of injuries training for fights. 7. Don’t encourage her to eat carbs. 8. Whistle when she tells you how much she can deadlift. 9. Admire honor, courage and sacrifice. 10. Open the door for her. Hey, she likes a man with manners.

Thanks for stopping by and sharing some ways to impress Neen today!

Overton Scott is the pseudonym of a national bestselling author. Overton
is interested in a lot of themes covered in the Neen Ford stories:
martial arts, the warrior ethos, personal responsibility, and the
concept of justice. Like Neen, Overton doesn’t think that the
guilty should escape punishment on this earth. Unlike Neen, Overton
prefers to write stories rather than take the law into his own hands.
It’s just as morally satisfying, but less dangerous.

As you are
reading this, Overton should be working on the next Neen Ford adventure.
But he’s probably at the gym, shooting or wasting time looking at funny
pictures on the internet. You can contact him at neenford@gmail.com, if you’d like to discuss any aspect of the Neen Ford stories.
